A Letter From the CEO
Dear Friends,
Several months ago, the Board of Directors of Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation embarked on a strategic planning process to create a three- to five-year plan. We engaged a professional consulting team, who conducted an “environmental scan” by holding interviews and focus groups, and surveyed some of our key constituent groups, including Army of Women® members and advocates.
A Letter From the CEO
Dear Friends,
Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation is, as you likely know by now, dedicated to a future without breast cancer. For us, that means conducting research into the cause of breast cancer so we can learn how to stop it before it starts. This isn’t a popular area of research. Cure is much sexier. Cure means you’re fixing people and that makes you a savior.
